Debian didn't have a stable release until 1996... Even Slackware didn't shape up nicely until around 98 from what I remember. SLS gave it a GUI but wasn't well maintained. Linux wasn't really "good" until early 2000s at the very least.
I just wanted to play Space Cadet Pinball or Commander Keen as a kid, not compile my programs.
You're clearly talking about modern Linux.
I don't think I had budget to buy my own computers until '99, and that's when I first played with Linux
